Our integrated client proposition and modern data solutions are gaining traction with both new and existing clients. Client demand remains healthy for our AI-enabled media, creative, production and enterprise solutions, powered by our agentic marketing platform WPP Open. Winning competitive pitches to renew long-standing partnerships with clients like The Coca-Cola Company and DoorDash provides further evidence of commercial momentum and client confidence in WPP’s ability to drive brand differentiation and business growth at a global scale."
She added, “Our third quarter results show further sequential improvement in LFL growth, in line with our expectations. This reinforces my confidence in our strategy and our ability to deliver our plan. We remain focused on disciplined execution as we prepare for the ‘Build’ phase of Elevate28 and position WPP for a return to growth during 2027. Once again, I would like to thank our clients and partners for their continued trust, our shareholders for their support and our people for their commitment and hard work as we deliver the next phase of our plan.”
